I unconsciously scrunched my face at the nagging that kept coming into my ears.
[Dash]Ah, I understand! I’ll do it! [Dash]Oh, we know that our baby, even if she becomes a Duchess, is going through a tough time. We’re not ignorant trees about human life. [Dash]No. I’ll do as you wish…That’s when Johan, who had been far away outside the gazebo, suddenly came in.
“Estelle!”
“Huh?”
He grabbed my shoulder with a pale face.
“Do you know who’s in front of you right now?”
“That’s… Johan?”
I tilted my head, and Johan tightly hugged me, his Adam’s apple wriggling.
“Yes, I’m by your side. Don’t forget.”
Johan looked so affectionate and sad that I blinked my eyes.
‘Did I, did I say something strange without knowing?’
Crackle[Dash]
Light static electricity erupted from the crystal ball I was holding.
“Ah!”
I let go of the crystal ball, and the electricity visibly rose, electrifying the entire room. The ominous thumping noise grew louder.
‘I missed the conversation with the trees because I was distracted by Johan!’
[Dash]…Could a problem arise because I missed a bit of conversation? [Dash]We don’t know that either.The trees were irresponsible.
[Dash]We told you. It’s a way to consume as much of the fairy’s power as possible, but since you’ve gotten much better, we don’t know. [Dash]But still…Magical tools are very expensive.
If it was something a big shot like Johan kept in his lab, it was likely to be hard to obtain even with money.
“I, I didn’t do anything wrong, did I?”
“No.”
Johan patted my back without even looking at my face.
In the meantime, not only the pillar where the crystal ball was placed, but also unfamiliar white flowers grew wildly around the gazebo.
Soon the white petals were stained red like blood.
‘Bloodblossom?’
I don’t know how I know that flower.
‘It seems like I’ve seen it a lot somewhere…….’
“……Estelle.”
Johan’s red eyes, upon seeing the bloodblossom, trembled greatly.
“You don’t have to pretend to be okay.”
There was no pain, but Johan’s eyes looked too desolate.
“Is the blooming of the flower some kind of ominous sign?”
Should I pretend to be hurt as well?
Then Johan strongly hugged me. I rolled my eyes.
‘It wasn’t nothing after all!’
“No. It’s not an ominous sign. It happens sometimes.”
“I didn’t break it. Thankfully.”
I picked a bloodblossom, smiling.
‘It looks ominous, but…….’
Judging by appearance alone was a bad attitude.
“I like this flower a lot. It’s like Johan’s eyes.”
“My eyes?”
“Yes. Sometimes it’s lighter than this, but I like it when it’s this deep.”
Saying so, the flower seemed even prettier.
“Sometimes it’s sad or scary, but it feels like Johan’s sincerity. I like that it makes us feel closer.”
“How do you do that.”
Johan, momentarily choked up, soon lifted the corners of his mouth lazily.
“So lovable that it makes me angry.”
“I’m lovable?”
As I looked at him with hopeful eyes, he pushed me against the laboratory wall, trapping me between the wall and himself.
His forehead touched my forehead.
Soft and deep eyes looked down at me.
(This is a time divider.)
Johan hugged Estelle tightly.
‘Estelle originally doesn’t get along with magic.’
But this gazebo was a device made considering that, so wasn’t that why he brought her here?
‘She has a strong resistance to magic?’
That meant he couldn’t heal Estelle with magic, which was tantamount to the same thing.
‘To lose you like this, you?’
Estelle asked Johan.
“I didn’t do anything wrong, did I?”
She often asked if she had done something wrong and apologized. The suspicion that Estelle had been abused grew stronger.
‘The crystal bead is turning black.’
The crystal bead expresses the current state.
‘Black is pain.’
It means it’s feeling pain that not even a machine can express.
‘But why can you smile like that[dash]’
Then, Estelle’s face, holding the crystal bead, looked strange. Her forehead wrinkled momentarily, looking strained.
“I’ll do as you want…….”
Johan’s heart sank.
Impossible.
Ex-husband Wants Reconciliation
One-line summary: Chasing the wife to the crematorium (making an effort to attract someone who has become indifferent), the female lead doesn’t look back, the second male lead takes the position.
Intro:
To repay the kindness of the older generation, Su Mu crossed into a female-dominated world and became a live-in daughter-in-law of the Yan family, single-handedly saving the Yan family from fire and water.
But her husband, Yan Jiyue, the eldest son of the Yan family, treated her with sarcasm and never showed her a good face.
It wasn’t until after Su Mu’s death that this pampered and arrogant young master shed a few fake tears and pretended to want to die for love.
This life’s kindness was enough. If there was a next life, she would definitely kick Yan Jiyue away.
Who knew that the heavens would be so kind as to allow her to be reborn, returning to the time when she had just married into the Yan family.
Su Mu glanced at the Yan eldest son, who still spoke coldly to her, and threw a divorce letter in front of him.
“Let’s divorce!”
***
Yan Jiyue never imagined that he would be reborn. He happily went to find Su Mu, wanting to make up for the mistakes he had made in his ignorant youth.
Wasn’t the reason the heavens allowed him to be reborn to let him reconcile with Su Mu?
But when he pushed open the door to Su Mu’s room, the person lying on the bed was another man.
Su Mu’s personal attendant, Xie Yi.
Yan Jiyue hated him so much that his teeth itched. In front of Su Mu, Xie Yi was a gentle and considerate whisperer of sweet nothings, but in reality, he was vicious-hearted and deliberately sabotaged their husband and wife relationship.
In the previous life, it was he who secretly hid in Su Mu’s coffin and committed suicide, stealing a step ahead of him to be buried with Su Mu.
Yan Jiyue’s eyes were filled with hatred as he cursed, “What kind of thing are you? Your background is lowly, what right do you have to occupy Su Mu?”
Xie Yi looked at the sleeping Su Mu and no longer pretended to be a whisperer of sweet nothings.
He proudly stuck out his belly, “I have the right because my belly is capable of giving the Wife-master a daughter.”
***
Yan Jiyue was consumed with jealousy. He spread rumors that Xie Yi had once been branded with the mark of a “harlot” on his chest.
But on the night Xie Yi cut off the flesh bearing that mark, Su Mu suddenly realized something was amiss.
“How did you know the exact moment I was poisoned? And why did you show up a month early?”
Xie Yi remained silent, blood from his wound soaking through his robes. His sapphire eyes brimmed with anguish – or was it just a flawless act?
Between a once-arrogant husband now seeking redemption, and a gentle soul willing to die for her – who truly held the darkest secrets? And could it be that Su Mu and Yan Jiyue weren’t the only ones given a second chance at life…?
